## NB Building & Safety Considerations
- Lead paint testing required in pre-1978 homes before scraping or sanding
- VOC regulations apply to commercial and residential paint products in Canada
- Exterior painting season in NB typically May through October due to climate
- Minimum application temperature for most latex paints: 10C (50F)
- Proper ventilation required for interior painting per workplace safety standards
- Heights over 3m (10 ft) require fall protection under WorkSafeNB regulations
- Pressure washing runoff must comply with NB Environmental Protection Act

## Maritime Climate Painting Challenges
- High humidity levels in coastal regions (Saint John, Moncton) affect drying times
- Freeze-thaw cycles cause exterior paint to crack and peel faster than inland climates
- Salt air exposure in Bay of Fundy communities requires marine-grade exterior coatings
- Spring moisture from snowmelt can delay exterior painting start until late May
- UV exposure varies significantly between southern NB coast and northern interior
- Mildew and mould growth common on shaded exterior surfaces due to Maritime dampness
- Proper primer selection critical for wood siding in high-moisture environments
